In connection with my future involvement as a staff member or a volunteer working with children, I understand that CEF^® will conduct a background check to determine my ability to minister in this role. It may include information concerning my character, work habits, performance and any court records that may have a bearing on my job responsibilities.
I acknowledge that a telephonic facsimile (fax) or photocopy of my signature shall be as valid as the original.
I hereby authorize, without reservation, any law enforcement agency, institution, information service bureau, school, employer, church or non- profit organization, reference, or insurance company contacted by CEF^® or its consumer reporting agency or its agents, to furnish the information described above.

I authorize any references listed on this application to give you any information (including opinions) they may have regarding my character and fitness for children's work. I hereby release any individual, church, youth organization, employer, charity, reference, or any other person or organization, both individually or collectively, from any and all liability for damages of whatever kind or nature which may at any time result to me, my heirs or my family on account of compliance or any attempts to comply with this authorization, excepting only the communication of knowingly false information.

I agree to abide by the Child Protection Polley and to refrain from unscriptural conduct in the performance of my services on behalf of CEF^®.
